Chaos Girl Rewrites the Script novel Chapter 886

"Mom, you can't just apply for government-subsidized student housing whenever you want. Everyone there is an honor student. Mina living there isn't just great for her studies; it's close to campus too. It's really convenient."

Eleonora glared at Theron, clearly annoyed. "If you don't know how to speak properly, just keep your mouth shut."

Theron couldn't help but chuckle. He knew his mother just wanted to keep Mina around. Initially, he had also thought about making up for lost time, but when he saw how hard Mina fought to break free from the Blackthorne family's protective wings, he couldn't help but admire her courage. Since family wasn't strictly bound by blood, what did a few dozen miles really matter?

More than anything, he wanted Mina to live a free and happy life.

Isolde discreetly glanced at Theron, then picked up her teacup, keeping her head down and remaining silent.

Edmund waved his hand dismissively. "Theron is right. The kids are grown and have their own minds. Let her be! It's not like she's never coming back."

When Mina first announced she wanted to follow Honoria Gresham into the legal and political field, Edmund had been completely against it.

The path of law and politics was hard enough for a young woman, and she wanted to follow Honoria Gresham of all people!

Who was Honoria Gresham? A solitary crusader forging ahead through the darkness. She had offended so many people in her life that she probably couldn't even keep count. The only reason she was still alive was thanks to the Ravenshire family.

Unexpectedly, Mina had shown a rebellious streak. She was even willing to walk away from the Blackthorne family to pursue this path. It was then that Edmund truly realized the delicate flower he had raised in a greenhouse had grown a backbone. If he tried to forcefully cage her, the petals would eventually wither. It was better to let her grow freely out in the wild.

What Mina didn't know was that her application for the subsidized housing only went through because Edmund had secretly pulled some strings. Otherwise, with her wealthy background, she would never have qualified for the financial aid quota.

Eleonora was still a bit unwilling to let it go. She looked up and shot a look at Sterling.

Sterling played dumb, pretending not to notice her signal, and smiled to change the subject. "Mina, are you busy with school? Did that Ravenshire girl go to Merriton City for university?"

Mina shot Sterling a lukewarm glance. "Dad, since when did you care so much about Vivienne?"
